DEFINITION

Classification: 264/290.2

Biaxial or transverse to travel direction:

(under subclass 288.4) Process wherein a moving workpiece is stretched in a direction at right angles to its direction of movement or in which a stationary, indefinite-length

work-piece is stretched in two perpendicular directions.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

138+, for a process wherein stretching is followed by removal of part of the workpiece.

235.8, for a process wherein biaxial stretching of a film is followed by heat-setting. When all of the claims of a patent include the heat setting step, the patent is preferably not cross-referenced to this subclass.
